This is a project for 2020/1 Data Visualization class. The aim of this project is to discover how power plants and its generation capacity interacts with society and the impacts in different levels of human life.
We start with the definition of the power plants type presents in the project.
The history of human development is also the history of CO2. Since the begging of the Industrial Revolution, CO2 level in Earth's atmosphere is rising. We can notice some behaviour on CO2 over great history events. We can also notice how the developed countries are slowly emitting less CO2 over the last two decades, probably because in a change of a non-renewable energy mix to a renewable one.
There is more than 1 century that humans starting constructing power plants. We started with non-renewables ones, passing to sustainable and then renewables. We can notice how some events have shaped the decision-making of power plants.
